MAINTENANCE
BI-WEEKLY MAINTENANCE:
1. Emergency brake: To ensure operating
safety, the emergency brake must be
regularly checked to make sure it is
functioning properly. To do this, press
down the red emergency brake handle
whilst pedalling. When functioning optimally,
it should produce an immediate braking
effect and bring the flywheel to
a complete standstill.
The flywheel is only released again by the
emergency braking function after coming
to a complete standstill and when the
pressure is removed from the pedals.
2. Saddle adjustments: To maintain the
easy adjustment, the vertical and horizontal
saddle posts must be regularly cleaned and
lubricated. To do this, position the vertical
saddle post (A) in the uppermost position,
spray with maintenance spray and rub down
the entire exterior surfaces including the
horizontal post with a soft cloth.
Clean sweat residues off the contact surfaces
(B) of the horizontal saddle post beforehand
and if necessary apply a small amount of
lithium/silicone grease.
Also apply some lithium/silicone grease as
required to the clamp mechanism of the
clamping lever of the horizontal post (C).
